You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth (Hot Summer Night) Lyrics
BOY: On a hot summer night would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
GIRL: Will he offer me his mouth?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Will he offer me his teeth?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Will he offer me his jaws?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Will he offer me his hunger?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Again, will he offer me his hunger?
BOY: Yes!
GIRL: And will he starve without me?
BOY: Yes!
GIRL: And does he love me?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Yes
BOY: On a hot summer night would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
GIRL: Yes
BOY: I bet you to say that to all the boys.
It was a hot summer night and the beach was burning
There was fog crawling over the sand
When I listened to your heart I hear the whole world turning
I see the shooting stars
Falling through your trembling hands
You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste
When you hold me so close that my knees grow weak
And my soul is flying high above the ground
I'm trying to speak but no matter what I do
I just can't seem to make any sound
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you
Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water
And I guess that I'm beginning to grin
Oooh, we're finally alone and we can do what we want to
The night is young
And ain't no one gonna know where you
No one gonna know where you
No one's gonna know where you've been
You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
GIRL: Will he offer me his mouth?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Will he offer me his teeth?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Will he offer me his jaws?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Will he offer me his hunger?
BOY: Yes
GIRL: Again, will he offer me his hunger?
BOY: Yes!
GIRL: And will he starve without me?

The song plays on the saying "You took the words right out of my mouth" i.e. saying something right before the next person was going to say the same thing, in this case "I love you". In this case making it both figuratively (she said "I love you" in the moment before he did) and "literally" (she did so by actually taking the words out of his mouth while kissing him).
Why oh why i grew up with singers like michael jackson or backstreet boys or westlife? This meat loaf is much, much cooler!!! This song in particular, is very very FAB!!!
I grew up listening to country and then I heard a few Meat Loaf songs and started listening to him....Now when I listen to country, its just not the same, the music and the level of emotion are just 100X more powerful in Meat Loaf songs.

I LOVE MEAT LOAF
I LOVE MEAT LOAF
This song is one of my all time favourites - I LOVE the opening
Amazing Live!!!!!!! Just cant help but clap along !
ADORE this song. What power! You don't get anything like this days. AMAZING.
My msn name at the moment is "i bet you say that to all the boys.."
the opening sequence is brilliant :D
could never say a bad word about this song.
Is it just me or is this a song about a girl who can't kiss very well?
"You took the words right out of my mouth/Oh, it must have been while you were kissin' me"
"I swear it's true/I was just about to say 'I love you'"
Sounds like he's saying "I was just about to say I love you but you kiss so terribly that now I don't want to"
Haha!! never thought about it like that.....thats probably not wat its rly about but its hillarious when u put it like that

It could very well be what it's about. Jim Steinman has said many times that his lyrics are not meant to be taken seriously.
